Aww, skip the spandex and go right for the lycra footless tights with leotards of black. Put on the beautiful music and get started. Exercise is not confined to running and sports! When you return in January we will send you armed with CD’s and dance shoes, ready to start your own private group exercise class! Now, that’s the way to keep in shape, not all this pounding the pavement!

When I told Pam March that I needed to get back in shape from my injury, I mentioned that I wanted to be able to do plie’s again (that’s an accented e’ by the way, not an apostrophe) and run.

“Oh, heavens, don’t go running! All that pounding is way too hard on your feet and joints!” I assured her that I didn’t mean running as a sport, simply as a means of moving more quickly from one place to another in every day life situations. She seemed to understand, although I doubt if she runs from place to place either — she is such a calm, purposed individual. Such implusiveness undoubtedly escapes her.

Still, dancing is the best of all possible exercise regimens — stretching, aerobic, and focused. Good stuff, that dance stuff!

Love you, Weese. “Don’t get down, get serious!” Time for the exercise routine to begin again! We surely don’t want all of those TH clothes to not fit anymore! :)

and you just made me smile, bubsie.

i miss you guys lots.

i hope you are enjoying yourself over there so far away from the North Country. Just know that we aren’t forgetting about you, that girl, “louissa” comes up in a conversation at least once most days :)

and i wonder, what genetic pool can we blame for our lack of exercise and those horrid fat cells?!
